A/N: Disney is going to make me rip my heart out after I got my wisdom teeth removed? That is cruel and unusual punishment. (sigh) Well, here it goes. I don't own Newsies. That was almost as painful as getting my teeth out. (pouts) Now, on a happier note, I want to thank all my lovely reviewers. I love you guys!! Thanks to xxxNightmare, Kelsey, NewsiesRacetrack88 and Smiley94. You all rock!! Now, on with the story!

"My God, what happened?" Mrs. Jacobs exclaimed as we walked in the door. "The Delancys happened mama." David said grimly. "Les are you alright?" a girl who I assumed was Sarah asked. A voice came from the corner of the small room, the one place that I couldn't see, saying "How about you Davey? The Delancys aren't ones to run from a good fight, and you don't got a single bruise or cut on you." The speaker moved forward, more into the light. David obviously knew the boy, because he smiled and said "Well Jack, I didn't do any fightin'." Jack looked shocked and turned to Les, saying "Wow Les! You look great for gettin' rid of two guys twice as big as you." Les gave Jack a funny look, and then said, "The Delancys would've killed me, if it weren't for Lucky." Mrs. Jacobs, Jack and Sarah all asked, "Lucky?" "Lucky." David confirmed as he pulled me in front of him.

"Hi." Was all I said, was all I could say. Mrs. Jacobs looked slightly alarmed as she said "Oh my! Come in, come in. Jack, go get some hot water. Sarah, go get some gauze and soap. Lucky, Les come here and sit down. David, can you patch up Les? Come on Lucky, sit down. We need to get you patched up." "Thank you ma'am, but you don' need to do that for me. I don' wanna be trouble." I said. "Have you seen yourself?" Jack asked as he walked in with a bucket of water. I shook my head, and he brought over a small mirror. I gasped as I saw my reflection.

I looked worse than Les, and that was saying something! My left eye was swelling shut, a shallow cut on my cheekbone was still bleeding, it looked as if I had broken my nose, and my lip was split in several places. I examined my hands and saw that I had split six knuckles, and from experience I knew that I would be covered in bruises tomorrow. While I had been looking at my battle wounds, David had finished patching up Les, and put the tired boy in his bed. Mrs. Jacobs saw that I was looking at Les, so she took away the mirror, and began to clean me up. As she washed my wounds she chattered happily, saying "Well dear, you didn't get hurt too badly, which we should be grateful for. Oh good, your nose isn't broken. During the strike, David and Jack came home more than once looking worse than you." She chattered on as she bandaged up the worst cuts. "There," She finally said, tying off my knuckles, "all done. Will you be joining us for dinner?" David saw the look in my eye, and cut in before I could politely refuse, saying, "Of course Lucky will stay for dinner. I mean, it's the least we can do to thank her." I tried to shush David, but it was too late. "Her?" Jack asked. He was obviously talking to David, but I answered him, pulling off my hat as I said, "Yes her. It was supposed to be a secret, but the walkin' mouth here," I glared at David, "went and told."

Jack and David looked at each other. Everything was silent and then Jack and David burst out laughing. Even Sarah and Mrs. Jacobs chuckled as I yelled, "What's so funny?" "You gasp called Davey the giggle walkin' mouth." Jack said, before succumbing to more laughter. David took a deep breath, then quickly said, "Jack started callin' me the walkin' mouth over a year ago. How dija know my name?" "Well," I giggled, their laughter catching, "I just call 'em like I see 'em." All three of us were laughing now, and Sarah and Mrs. Jacobs went to check on Les. After several minutes, David and Jack managed to stop laughing, but I couldn't. I kept laughing, harder and harder. I'm not sure when the laughter became tears, but I was bawling now. I tried to stop crying, but I couldn't do that either. I felt someone grab my hand and lead me outside. I didn't see who it was. I heard the window open and was pushed out on the fire escape. The night air was cool on my flaming face. Someone pulled me into a tight embrace, saying "Shh, shh. Don't worry, don't cry. Everything will be alright."

I recognized David's voice, and relaxed into his tight embrace. After several minutes, after I had regained my composure, I pulled away from David. I hadn't noticed the blackness that had been gathering at the edges of my vision, but standing alone was too much for me. I crumpled onto the ground. The last thing I remember was David asking me "Are you alright?" before everything went black and I felt no more.
